• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Just a suggestion, every now and then pull your ignition cover and clean up your stator, flywheel and pickup assy. I have posted this in the past related to my TXC450. I just did my TE310 it had lots of magnetic particals and slivers all over the 3 parts. I cannot give a factual electronic fault or degrade of the system because of this dirtying of the parts. But Its never good to have particals stuck onto components. So clean your stuff up.
 
Did you put a new gasket on, or use teh old one? I have a small bit of oil weeping past the rubber gromet on the wire loom from the stator. I put some RTV on it from the outside and it slowed it down but did not cure it. Are you getting some oil weeping?

I Installed a new gasket and always use a thin coat threebond 1211 (IMHO the best RTV seal stuff out there) around all those rubber grommet type seals.
Oil was weeping form the grommet area when I first bought the bike but the same procedure cured that issue. (It's a 15 minute job to do the entire process, ok 1/2 hour if you take your time)
